4 Star Review by Tracey Nathan
Booked a table for 15 adults 5 children and was pleasantly accommodated for. Food and drinks service very friendly and professional. Very good seafood platter. Only suggestion to change seating arrangement as little crowded seated next to another large party. Thank you Yarra Bay restaurant.

Booked an 80th birthday lunch for 36 people and all had a great time with great food (and plenty of it) a and lovely views. Michael, Ben and the team were really accommodating and really looked after us. Highly recommend!
1 Star Review by Bee Rice
Would give it less than one star if possible. Attended a function here that was so poorly managed it was disgusting. The function room was in horrible condition, the furniture was not maintained at all, the floor was filthy, and the roof was collapsing. The Eftpos wasnt set up properly and so the staff were writing down drinks instead of correctly tracking the bar tab. It took forever to get drinks and the staff were not aware of the price of anything. One staff member (female manager) was extremely rude to guests and party organisers, yelling, swearing and speaking over the top of them when trying to sort out a misunderstanding. The security guard did a great job overall. Felt pretty sorry for the young guy behind the bar, it really seemed like there had been no training, no direction or support at all. All in all, absolutely disappointed in the experience. A complete shipwreck. All who attended were local and you know what they say about word of mouth
1 Star Review by Renee
Nice view but thats about where it ends. Attended a function where the room was essentially a garage with some tables, chairs and a bar. Was not cleaned at all, chairs and tables cramped together, such an underwhelming set up. Disappointed from the get go. We were then met with an untrained staff member who did not know how to do their job and which essentially made the service terrible. Furthermore, eftpos and cash registers were not set up properly. The older female manager working on the 20/08 was making us feel uncomfortable and started yelling at one of the event organisers for questioning the incompetence of the lack of an eftpos machine in the function room. As someone who has worked in hospitality for almost 4 years I am very disgusted, disappointed, and unsatisfied with my visit here. Not to the standards that I have experienced or expect as a guest. Would give a negative rating if possible. Will not be back and do not recommend visiting. The view was nice though.

Love this place. Great staff, killer location for sundowners on the balcony. Can be a bit noisy and raucous when there's a private function on. Excellent seafood in the restaurant.

4 Star Review by Peter Stavely
Fantastic location if you just ignore the cranes at the container terminals in the distance. Seafood restaurant excellent and very popular and bistro food is good and relatively inexpensive. Only downside to this place is if it's a nice sunny day there car park fills up very early with people going down to the beach . They really should have more control over their own car park . We've been going there for years but a few times the lack of car spaces for actual members has been terrible so we've gone somewhere else. It's a little ironic that them best time to go there is when the weather is bad.
